On January 22nd, Leapmotor announced that its Leapmotor D19 SUV successfully completed the world’s first real-world test of simultaneous double tire blowout on the same side in extreme ice and snow conditions at two speeds of 80 and 120 km/h and a full load of six people. The Leapmotor D19 was opened for pre-orders on November 21st, 2025 and is expected to officially enter the market in April this year.
At the moment of the tire burst, the vehicle did not shake violently or lose control and veer off course. The vehicle continued to drive smoothly until it came to a complete stop, maintaining stable direction, thanks to the LMC (Leapmotor Intrgrated Motion Control) system, according to the official statement.
More specifically, the LMC has a recognition and response time of 200 milliseconds. The moment a tire bursts, the corresponding wheel’s air suspension raises the height of that side of the suspension, leveling the vehicle body.
Built on Leapmotor’s flagship D platform, the Leapmotor D19 is available in both BEV and EREV variants.
The EREV variant is an AWD and is equipped with Leapmotor’s EREV CTC battery technology, boasting a combined power output of 400 kW (536 hp) and a wheel-end torque of 7,850 Nm, paired with an 80.3 kWh battery pack supplied by CATL. Its CLTC pure electric range is 500 km.

Furthermore, the Leapmotor D19 has million-pixel DLP (digital light processing) headlights and an integrated taillight cluster featuring a digital display to support multiple lighting scenarios. The screen spans 1,958 mm in width and contains 11,025 LED beads.
The Leapmotor D19 measures 5252/1995/1800 (1780) mm (l/w/h), with a 3110 mm wheelbase, offering 6-seater or 7-seater layout. The standard rear trunk capacity is 337 L and is expandable to 2,677 L.
